    Toes Dipped

    Thank you for the response & luck! Offer was accepted, now onto RoFR This is great to hear. The use year would be Feb, so by the time closing comes, it would be inside of 4 months if we wanted to purchase the one time points for a stay. We don't want to borrow 2018, since the seller banked...

    Buy Direct 1st then Resale 2nd?

    I'm giving this a go. Small contract resale pending, then I'll add the 25 points Direct. Of course back to resale for any future adds.

    Toes Dipped

    Ok, toes dipped. Sending in escrow deposit for small resale contract tomorrow. Question: The contract banked all 2017 points for 2018 (cool, double the points early next year if we get this one). Now, there being 0 points left upon closing (fingers crossed), do we still get the one time...

    Buy Direct 1st then Resale 2nd?

    Thanks for the reply, based on this, and my other findings. Resale 1st, then Disney Direct for 25. Save me from buying 50 direct now... Yes, i want the benefits of a full fledged member, no matter the future guarantee's or not. So just trying to find out how to buy as little as possible. My...

    Buy Direct 1st then Resale 2nd?

    Or the other way around? In either case the direct purchase is the smallest amount just to be official. Is there a strategy here? Can you buy less points direct after having a resale first? I'm staring at a 50 point offer direct, but not a current DVC owner anywhere. From reading other...

    Day of MNSSHP

    Subject to you or your groups stamina. Having done it twice now, I think even 4pm is early, lol. Pooped by the end, if we make it...

    How close are you to WDW?

    3hrs from SWFL The FL based AP pricing is attractive, and we visit as often as feasable. I don't do day trips, 6hrs round trip with Disney in the middle doesn't work for me. We enjoy the staycations

    Let's Talk Monorails...

    The Disney World monorails need a complete modernization overhaul. Would love the Tokyo versions as a nice refresh, or something even more futuristic to fit EPCOTs original city of the future concept. In addition the monorail system should branch off to every major U.S. city for direct luxury...

    Beaches & Cream

    Just myself and Disney Wife ;-) I'm sure we will pop in to check it out in any event. Our fist stay at Beach Club, so we will do some exploring. So they have "sit at the counter" first come first serve? That would also be an option for us. Thank you.

    Beaches & Cream

    Thanks for the tip! I will certainly try this out, makes perfect sense since if you don't cancel by 24hrs yo u get charged a no show after the fact if you don't arrive to your credit card booked Reservation.

    Beaches & Cream

    Oh I'm aware things open up, I keep checking. It's 7/2, popular holiday weekend. I think my chances are 0.01% of success.

    Cross Shoo Disney Direct vs DVC rentals

    I've always advocated DVC rentals for price savings since we became AP holders in 2014. Recently however, without explanation I'm starting to find DVC rentals coming up more expensive than booking Disney direct. So if recommend everyone start doing the same, this is a price game :-) My recent...

    No luck over the phone. Waited 15min for the cast member to tell me what the robot already did. Oh well.

    Beaches & Cream

    Is the only way to book reservations @ Beaches & Cream through the online Reservation system? Do they have a direct phone number? I'm assuming the Disney reservations Hotline would show the same availability as the online system, so was looking for a restaurant direct Hotline. I'm probably...

    Davids Vacation Rentals

    Wrong again, and this goes for ALL DVC Brokers. If your getting park tickets via any of the DVC services, then you are buying these tickets 'through' the broker itself, not the DVC Member. Renters do not ever purchase Disney Park Tickets from a DVC member, directly or indirectly. The DVC...

    Davids Vacation Rentals

    @dreamfinder I'm not sure where you get any information with regards to a DVC member purchasing 'park tickets' on the renters behalf. This is simply not the case, whatsoever. The DVC member can add dining packages (with 30 days notice) after a rental booking has occurred, but that is the...

    March or May?

    1st week of May is a sweet spot (week, not weekends). Flower & Garden begins 1st week of March, so stay out of our way :p

    Florida Resident Ticket Question

    If she doesn't "pick up at window" and get her ticket media, she won't be able to enter the parks. Had the option to ship to home been selected, what would have arrived would have been 'exchange tickets' still needing to stop at a gate to 'exchange' them for active media. Resident Tickets...

    Park tickets have nothing to do with DVC bookings. You can buy your tickets online, through a 3rd party, or at the gates. We have used Davids 5 times over the last few years, great way to get deluxe @ moderate pricing. The process can be frustrating at some times since there are a few moving...
